Compound
Since any shampoo, and conditioning too, is intended for washing the head, you need to carefully study its composition, especially surfactants - surface active substances. It is they - detergents - that are responsible for the foam and getting rid of contaminants. They make up half of the total number of components and are very aggressive substances. Particularly harmful can bring problems such as dryness, itching, peeling of the epidermis of the head, brittle hair, and their loss.
Sulfate compounds (sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium laureth sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate, ammonium laureth sulfate) are recognized as the most dangerous ingredients.
